"Our Rights are not what's wrong in
Missouri"
WMSA, the Western
Missouri Shooters Alliance is a not-for-profit
corporation created to inform concerned Missouri citizens about
legislation that affects their rights. This has become necessary since
the majority of the news media knowingly suppresses the truth about gun
control and seldom presents the pro-gun side of a story. This is, we
believe, a violation of the 1st Amendment in order to eliminate the 2nd
Amendment. It is our intention to educate the public and promote freedom
as both our Constitution and Bill of Rights so clearly specify, and as
our founding fathers intended. WMSA -PO Box 11144, Kansas City,
MO 64119

The
next time someone preaches on "gun control" to you,
you might want to ask him or her,
"whose gun and under whose control?"
--Jimmie Lee Hollis

be armed. Everyone who is able may have a gun."

Physician sees the light
Letters to the Editor -- Wall Street Journal
--10/03/2001
"After the terrorist attacks I've
been rethinking gun possession. Long a staunch anti-gun
supporter, I'm preparing to buy a handgun and get the training necessary
to legally conceal it.
"As a physician I have seen what guns do to
people. This fostered my anti-gun beliefs. The post-Sept. 11
U.S. now demands self-protection. Teachers, business people, and
yes, physicians with weapons could help curtail the excessive
carnage potential of a single madman with a gun, or a box cutter for
that matter. A few stories of thwarted terror attacks by armed
citizens might change the mindset of the lawless who perpetrate such
acts."

"The
plain meaning of the right of the people to keep arms is that it is an
individual, rather than a collective, right and is not limited to keeping
arms while engaged in active military service or as a member of a select
militia such as the National Guard."
-U.S.
v Emerson, 5th Circuit Federal Court [published October 16, 2001]
|
|
"The current position of the
United States, is that the Second Amendment more broadly protects the
rights of individuals, including persons who are not members of any state
militia or engaged in active military service or training, to possess and
bear their own firearms." -Solicitor General Theodore
B. Olson, May 6, 2002

Stay Out of Jail Cards (new version June 2002)
In an effort to dispel many popular myths surrounding
Missouri firearm laws, two of the members of the WMSA Board of Directors
(one of which is a practicing attorney) have compiled a compendium of
Missouri firearms laws. This comprehensive listing has been printed on
small, wallet-sized cards which we distribute free of charge. It is also
available for direct download in Adobe Acrobat
PDF format.

Missouri's
"Permit To Transfer Firearm" System
As of 28 August, 2007 it will no longer be
required to get a Permit To Acquire (PTA) from the sheriff before
buying a handgun. The federal NICS check is all that is required. For
private sales it may be adviseable to transfer it through an FFL.

the corner stone of the WMSA is the 2nd Amendment, it should be obvious
that the remainder of the foundation includes the rest of The Bill of

Media
Contact Reference
To counter the anti-gun bias of the dominant
media, it is often times necessary to contact them and let them know
that they have either mis-represented the facts, or have only reported one
side of the story. It's equally important to let them know that it's
appreciated when they accurately report the news. |
